Radiohead and Snoop Dogg headline Coachella

Radiohead, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre and The Black Keys will headline this year's Coachella festival.

The annual event - which traditionally kicks off the festival season - will be held in the desert near Palm Springs, California, and for the first time will see the same line up perform on two separate weekends, April 13-15 and April 20-22.

Of the decision to expand the festival to two weekends, organiser Paul Tollett said: "The thought of this selling out super quick, and the only people who get to go are the people who bought the first minute or bought tickets for more than they sold for, that didn't seem great to us.

"We didn't want to go with more people and ruin the experience. We can't add a midnight show, and we didn't want to add another city or raise the ticket price. So we decided to add another weekend."

Surprise additions to the bill include experimental Texan rockers At The Drive-In, who announced they are getting back together 11 years after splitting yesterday (08.01.11) and influential Swedish punk band Refused, who originally split in 1998, a year after releasing their definitive 'The Shape of Punk to Come' album.

In a statement on their website the band wrote: "We never did 'The Shape of Punk to Come' justice back when it came out, too tangled up in petty internal bickering to really focus on the job.

"And suddenly there's this possibility to do it like it was intended. We wanna do it over, do it right. For the people who've kept the music alive through the years, but also for our own sakes. We feel that you deserve it and we hope the feeling is mutual."

Tickets for the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival go on sale this Friday (13.01.12).

Rihanna is over people creating a competition between her and Beyoncé

The Rihanna Navy and the Beyhive have been on not-so-friendly terms on social media following the announcement of the 2017 Grammy Awards nominations.

Although RiRi expressed gratitude for her whopping eight nods, the Navy felt that she was snubbed after Anti didn't receive a nom for Album of the Year over Beyoncé's Lemonade. Naturally, Bey's fans wasted no time in coming to the defence of their Queen.

But Rihanna quickly cleared things up on the 'gram, commenting on a fan's photo, "I'm petty af, yes. But this is just unnecessary! I wish y'all would drop this topic and see things from the bigger picture! We don't need to be putting black women against each other! We deserve to be celebrated and the Grammy Academy agrees!"

The first woman on a Canadian bank note has been named

There's an excting (and long overdue TBH) change coming to Canada's $10 bills: They will now feature the face of an extraordinary Canadian woman.

The shortlist for the spot was announced earlier this year, and included the suffragette Idola Saint-Jean and Olympian Bobbie Rosenfeld, but it was civl rights activist Viola Desmond who the Bank of Canada ultimately chose for the prime spot on our blue bank note.

It was for such a time as this that Heritage Minutes were created, so we'll refer you to the spot released about Ms. Desmond last year for the full primer on the Nova Scotia native (but the TL:DR version is that she was an entrepreneur ahead of her time who played a pivotal role in the Canadian civil rights struggle):
